Movie Reviews

EricDSnider.com - 9/10 by Eric D. SniderFinds its substance in the personalities and relationships of the characters -- so much substance that a conventional 'story' isn't even needed.
E! Online - 9/10 by Dezhda GaubertBring your tissues, ladies. Halle Berry and Benicio Del Toro act their hearts out in a modern weepie that manages to hit all the marks, without being too terribly predictable.
Palo Alto Weekly - 9/10 by Jeanne AufmuthOverwrought indies aren't typically my thing and this achingly angsty melodrama does little to alter my thinking.
Decent Films Guide - 9/10 by Steven D. GreydanusThough not always faithful in small things, Things We Lost is faithful in much. The individual moments are sometimes off, but the large emotional resonances are right.
eFilmCritic.com - 9/10 by Brian OrndorfHaunting cinema...an exquisite film of mammoth dramatic reach and sympathy, and it presents Susanne Bier as one of the most observant, patient filmmakers working today.
San Francisco Chronicle - 9/10 by Walter V. Addiego[Director] Bier knows the difference between drama and melodrama.
One Guy's Opinion - 9/10 by Frank SwietekBier's skill in rising above melodramatic convention appears to have abandoned her on the trip to America.
ReelTalk Movie Reviews - 9/10 by Betty Jo Tucker'Things We Lost in the Fire' deserves praise for its top-notch performances and its humanistic treatment of such serious subject matter as grief and addiction.
Apollo Guide - 9/10 by Brian WebsterLess than profound, but consistently honest, Things We Lost in the Fire is neither triumphant nor great, but it is meaningful.
New York Daily News - 9/10 by Jack MathewsBerry gives a riveting performance, but as a deeply decent man trapped in a hell of his own making, Del Toro gives the kind of career performance Berry gave in "Monster's Ball."
